I realize it is way tooo soon to tell about long-term improvement, but having had a rough night’s sleep (it’s barely 4:00 a.m. as I type now), I am tickled to stick my finger and find a reading of 198!

My body will continue to become accustomed to various changes and new meds, but this weekend so far has been less than pleasant. I know I have to stay active, of course, but my body has been rebelling in the belly-gut. Stuff just hurts. Oddly, I had several periods yesterday of feeling super-stellar, and I stood up to work at the counter. But after dyeing 4 or 5 skeins, and had to sit and rest. It was after 9:00 when I finally got the last ones dyed and into the steamer.

Gonna pause here. I’ll come back and write more later. While being wide awake after about 5 hours, I’m not sure if I’m ready to actually be ‘up’, or if I’ll go crash for a while, or maybe plan on a mid-morning luxury nap.
